U. S. Military butcher block (?)

Featured Replies

#1

Hello,

I have a bit of an odd ball question. At an auction today, I purchased a maple cutting board/butcher block. It's hefty at about 2" thick and currently in two pieces. My original intent was to get it and cut it up for my own projects. However, I noticed on one end of the cutting board are the letters "U S". So I'm wondering if I should reconsider my plans and rehab this old cutting board. Could this be an old military KP item?

 

If military, are there collectors that this would appeal to?

 

Thanks in advance

The only surplus cutting boards I could find online are modern polymer versions, but I'm sure they must have had heavier wooden ones prior to plastic. Anybody have a list or lists of equipment issued to field kitchens?
